Articles related to "Golgi Apparatus"

The Golgi Apparatus is an important organelle found in eukaryotic cells that helps with the creation, sorting and modification of molecules used throughout the cell.

The cell's endomembrane system consists of the rough and smooth ER, Golgi apparatus, vesicles and plasma membrane, all working together to transport cellular materials.

A look at the structural components of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells and the differences between the two types of cell.

Protein tubes and fibers help to assemble and move organelles to cellular locations. These protein aggregates make up the cytoskeleton.

This collection of articles provides basic information about prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, their structure, function, differences and similarities.

Cell membranes once seemed to be simple cell structures. Today, membranes are recognized as complex, highly-organized structures that still require intensive research.

Organelles allow for many of the different required functions of the eukaryotic cell to be performed in specialized subcellular structures.

All organisms are made up of cells. There are single-celled and multi-celled organisms. Here is a brief overview of what a cell consists of, and some of its functions.

This lab is appropriate for students of various ages and is a fun way to encourage students to learn about cell structure.

The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) organelle is made up of two types, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, which carry out different functions in the cell.

Animals and plants are eukaryotes, composed of cells that have a nucleus, and membrane-bound organelles. But animal cells have a few different features than plant cells.

This classroom activity can be used to familiarize students with basic cell structure and encourage them to think about how the membrane system of eukaryotes works.

Many science students are looking for short-cuts to make learning cell biology effortless. There are none, but there are strategies to help compare the two cell types.

Microtubules are rigid protein tubes that radiate from the cell center and provide the tracks used by motor proteins to move organelles and molecules to the cell surface.

Plants are eukaryotes, composed of cells that have a nucleus, and membrane-bound organelles. But plants have a few different features than animal cells. Here's a summary.
